Mané, the trigger for the dismissal of Nagelsmann

The German newspaper Bild points to a discussion of the Senegalese striker, the great signing of Bayern Munich in the last summer transfer market, as a trigger for the dismissal of the German coach, consummated last Thursday. According to the aforementioned media, Mané would have become angry in front of the locker room, recriminating Nagelsmann that would only have given him eight minutes in the second leg of the Champions League round of 16 against PSG.

The thing does not stop there: always according to said medium, the rest of the players were in the locker room when Mané’s cables were crossed and they perceived that Nagelsmann himself was intimidated by Mané’s outburst, thus being portrayed in front of your team. ItThe players interpreted it as a loss of authority, especially when he included the former Liverpool player in the starting eleven for the next league match against Augsburg, a decision that, from the footballers’ point of view,was a direct consequence of the explosion of rage of the African striker.

The outlet points out that what happened was the trigger for Nagelsmann’s dismissal, since those responsible wanted to avoid more gaps of this type between the squad and the coach. By installing Thomas Tuchel in the role, both CEO Oliver Kahn and sporting director Hasan Salihamidzic aimed to prevent further altercations like this. “The relationship between the team and the coach no longer worked”, Salihamidzic went on to say about the reasons for the dismissal of a Nagelsmann who, evidently, had lost part of the dressing room.
